The only way to get rid of things like this is to turn off Palm's Backup, which will then delete the version on the server and you can fully start fresh.
It is definitely possible that Patches that modify database files that are backed up by Palm, and which do not undo that modification on removal of the patch, can cause the modified database to be retrieved from backup.
If that's what this thread is about, then the title should be changed.
Any patch which does not clean up after itself when removed should be reported to the patch maintainer so they can be fixed. Too many people only think about the installation part of the patching lifecycle, and forget about the updating and removal parts.
